In the Harivamsha Purana, the celestial being brought Draupadi to the city of Padma-nabha during the night. ||13|| After bringing her there, he left her in the garden of the palace and informed King Padma-nabha. King Padma-nabha went and saw Draupadi, the celestial maiden, in person. ||14|| Although Draupadi had awakened from her Sarvatobhadra bed and was sleepless, she kept on sleeping again and again, suspecting that it was a dream. ||15|| Knowing the intention of Draupadi, who had closed her eyes, King Padma-nabha slowly approached her and spoke sweet words. ||16|| He said, "O, wide-eyed one! Look, this is not a dream. O, Ghatastani! This is the island of Dhataki-khanda, and I am King Padma-nabha." ||17|| "Narada had told me about your beautiful form, and the god I worship brought you here for me." ||18|| Hearing this, her heart was filled with fear, and she said, "What is this?" She thought, "Alas! This unbearable sorrow has come upon me." ||19|| She decided, "Until I see Arjuna, I will not eat," and she tied her hair in a way that could be undone by Arjuna. ||20|| Then, Draupadi, who was within the fortress of her character, spoke to King Padma-nabha, who was tormented by desire, saying, ||21|| "Balarama and Krishna-Narayana are my brothers, Arjuna, the archer, is my husband, Bhima, the elder brother of my husband, is a great warrior, and Sahadeva and Nakula, the younger brothers of my husband, are like Yama." ||22|| "Their chariots, which cannot be stopped by any means, travel all over the earth, like desires, on land and water." ||23|| "Therefore, O King! If you want your own well-being, along with your brothers and relatives, then quickly send me back, like a serpent." ||24|| When Padma-nabha, whose other desires had been extinguished, did not give up his desire even after Draupadi said this, then Draupadi, who was quick to think according to the situation, replied firmly, ||25|| "O King! If my loved ones do not come here within a month, then do whatever you wish with me." ||26|| Saying, "So be it," Padma-nabha kept her company, surrounded by his wives, trying to charm her. ||27||
